Services for families
Convenience guaranteed
We do everything we can to make your IKEA shopping experience easier when you have little ones in tow – from our extra-large parking spaces to our pram-friendly store layout.
Time for fun and adventure
Bigger children can have fun with other kids their age while you shop – we’ve set up small activity zones for them around the store and offer supervised play in our Småland play area.
Peaceful baby nursing facilities
We provide a private room where you can relax and breastfeed your baby in peace.
Stress-free family dining
Do you need a jar of baby food for your child? By purchasing a warm dish in the Swedish Restaurant we are happy to offer it to you. You can also buy it separately. And you’ll find everything else you need there too – there’s no shortage of high chairs, bibs, children’s cutlery or microwaves.
Family-friendly showrooms
You can look forward to exploring our exciting examples of fully furnished spaces together, safe in the knowledge that we have baby changing facilities and free nappies (on request) at the store entrance, restaurant and children’s toilets. What's more, we regularly offer fun activities and events to entertain the whole family.
Småland play area
All children aged 3 to 7 are welcome at our supervised Småland play area. The kids can play and have fun while you shop in peace.
Look out for the play area located near the entrance of all our IKEA stores.
You can sign your child in at the digital registration station. Please note: You’ll need your smartphone, valid ID (you must be over the age of 18) and proof of your child’s age.
You can find out more, including the opening times, on your local IKEA store’s webpage.
